Xiao Chong was slapped in the face and fell to the ground.
His face was already swollen like a pig's head, and after being slapped by Xiao Zhan, it split open and started bleeding.
He fell to the ground and covered his bleeding face with his hands, looking at Xiao Zhan in disbelief.
"You hit me! That bastard from the third branch hit me, and not only did you not avenge me, you hit me … You don't deserve to be my father! "
Xiao Chong was trembling with anger. He stared at Xiao Zhan with cold eyes and roared in a low voice.
Xiao Zhan was so angry that he almost vomited blood. He stood up with a 'bang', and his whole body was filled with rage. He scolded in a low voice, "Bastard, are you still so stubborn?
Wake up for me and think carefully about the name 'Xiao Han'! "
"What do I have to think about?" Xiao Chong stared back at him and roared even more furiously, "Isn't he just a bastard from the third branch? Isn't he just living for a few more decades?
You always brag about how powerful you are, but now that your son is being bullied, you don't even dare to fart. You only dare to hit me!
I'm going to tell my mother, and I'm going to the Law Hall to ask the Law Elder to judge for me! "
As he spoke, Xiao Chong got up from the ground and was about to rush out of the study.
"Get back here!" Xiao Zhan was so angry that his face turned purple. He waved his sleeves and pulled Xiao Chong back.
He grabbed Xiao Chong's collar and shouted angrily, "Xiao Chong! Are you trying to get us killed? Calm down and think about who Xiao Han is!
He's the pride of the Xiao Clan, the pillar of the Xiao Clan! Is he someone you and I can offend? "
The agitated Xiao Chong suddenly thought of something when he heard Xiao Zhan's reminder.
"Xiao Han … Xiao Han! Is he that … Dong Lin Divine General?? "
Xiao Zhan shouted in a cold voice, "Nonsense! Who else could it be? "
"It's him?" Xiao Chong was dumbfounded. He stood there with his mouth agape, and the anger in his heart disappeared.
It was as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over his head. He felt cold from head to toe, and even his back was cold.
Xiao Han was the pride of the Xiao Clan. He was also a peerless expert that was worshipped by the younger generation.
Most importantly, the top two scorers of the Holy Fire Festival would be brought out of the Xiao Clan by Xiao Han to receive care and training.
However, he had already made a mistake and had been slapped twice by Xiao Han.
However, he still clamored at Xiao Han and refused to let him off. He even wanted to look for the Law Elder to reason things out.
After such a thing had happened, what was Xiao Han's impression of him? Would he still support and nurture him?
Thinking of this, Xiao Chong suddenly collapsed on the chair and murmured in a daze, "This is impossible! How was this possible? How could there be such a coincidence?
Why? He had not returned to the Xiao Clan for decades. Why did he return today?
He didn't know Xiao Linger at all, so why would he protect Xiao Linger?
No … I can't accept this! "
Xiao Zhan also gradually calmed down. With a grave expression, he said, "Chong-er, tell me everything that happened. Don't leave out anything!"
Xiao Chong was filled with fear. Of course, he did not dare to hide the truth, nor did he dare to exaggerate. He could only tell the truth.
After he finished telling the whole story, Xiao Zhan heaved a sigh of relief. He nodded and said, "Although you and Xiao Ke are at fault, there is still room for redemption.
This is a grudge between you, Xiao Ke, Xiao Linger, and Xiao Tianxing. It is a matter of the younger generation. Fortunately, you did not directly clash with Xiao Han.
Now, follow me to Tingfeng Garden and apologize to Xiao Han in person! "
"Ah?" Xiao Chong was stunned. He said in disbelief, "Father, are we really going to swallow this and apologize to Xiao Han?
There are so many people in the clan watching. If we go and apologize, this matter will spread throughout the Xiao Clan tomorrow.
At that time, we will be the laughingstock of the entire clan. We will be ridiculed for life! "
Xiao Zhan glared at him angrily and scolded, "Bastard! Until now, do you still not understand the importance of this matter?
Compared to the status and resources we already have, what is this little bit of face?
Besides, how could it be considered shameful to offer a humble apology to Divine General Dong Lin?
Not only us, who in the ninth branch can afford to offend him? "
Xiao Chong was silent. He was still hesitating.
Xiao Zhan did not allow him to think too much. He grabbed his neck and dragged him out of the study, rushing to Tingfeng Garden.
…
Tingfeng Garden was brightly lit. The night was quiet.
Xiao Han was standing in a dark stone passage. Behind him was the door to the secret chamber.
He had been waiting outside the secret chamber for a few hours.
He paced back and forth, praying silently in his heart, "Tianxing, you must succeed! Third Uncle's health is deteriorating. The third branch's position is in danger.
If you can cure Third Uncle's injury, then you can let the third branch continue to exist, and you can also fulfill my wish … "
At this moment, a guard hurried over and reported respectfully, "Divine General, there is someone in the main hall who wishes to see you."
Xiao Han raised his eyebrows and asked, "Who wants to see me in the middle of the night?"
The guard replied truthfully, "It is Xiao Zhan from the second branch. He brought his son Xiao Chong. They said they are here to apologize to you!
The father and son are both shirtless and carrying thorns on their backs. They are kneeling in the main hall. "
Xiao Han frowned and thought for a moment. "Ignore them. Let them kneel for a while."
He was only worried about the third elder's injury. He could not be bothered with the father and son.
The guard hurriedly turned and left, not daring to disturb him.
Very quickly, another two hours had passed.
There was still no movement in the secret chamber. Xiao Han was still pacing back and forth, anxiously waiting.
At this time, the guard returned and reported to Xiao Han again, "Reporting to Divine General, there are two more people here to see you."
Xiao Zhan frowned unhappily and asked, "Who is it this time?"
The guard replied, "It is Xiao Ke and his son. They are also shirtless and carrying thorns on their backs. They are kneeling in the main hall and asking for forgiveness."
Xiao Han frowned and sneered disdainfully, "These guys are quite sensible. They really don't care about their reputation and come here to apologize.
Since that is the case, I will teach them an unforgettable lesson. "
After that, he instructed the guard, "Go and tell them to kneel in the main hall until dawn. They are not allowed to leave.
Tell them to take care of their own children. Don't be a tyrant in the Xiao Clan. Otherwise, sooner or later, they will be in big trouble! "
The guard acknowledged the order and hurriedly left.
Xiao Han did not take this matter to heart. He continued to pace outside the secret chamber, paying attention to the movements in the secret chamber.
He silently calculated in his heart. Ji Tianxing had said that he could cure the third elder's injury before dawn.
It was already dawn. In another four hours, the sun would rise.
